Good morning, everyone.
We had some severe thunderstorms on Sunday, mostly in southeast Missouri. A few warnings were issued for Illinois and northwest Tennessee.
We will have to see if the NWS can find any tornado paths. There were several tornado warnings.
All in all, it was a low-end severe weather event. There was not much instability. There was a lot of wind shear. Thankfully, CAPE was low. CAPE is energy that storms tap into.
There could be a couple of showers left over this morning over eastern portions of western Kentucky.
Otherwise, some clouds today. Mild.
A series of systems will bring a chance of showers and thunderstorms back to the forecast Wednesday through next Monday.
At this time, the threat of severe weather appears low. I am watching next Sunday night and Monday. That is just a bit too far out to be forecasting severe storms.
What is more likely is on and off damp periods. Perhaps some periodic downpours.
There will be quite a bit of moisture to work with. It does not appear that there will be much CAPE to work with. Again, CAPE is energy that severe thunderstorms tap into.
This is the precipitable water forecast. Precipitable water is a measure of moisture in the entire atmosphere.
This is quite a bit of moisture that is expected to move across the region. This animation is for Wednesday through next Thursday. Waves of moisture.
Those purple colors are the highest moisture levels. Notice how they move in and out over a period of days. Waves of moisture.
.
Temperatures will be mild. No extreme warmth or cold in the short-range charts.
Here is the latest seven-day rainfall forecast. Nothing extreme, yet. Let’s monitor these totals. I can’t rule out them trending a bit higher.

The timestamp (upper left) is in Zulu. 12z=7 am. 18z=1 pm. 00z=7 pm.
